Multi-Wavelength Intra-Day Variability and Quasi-Periodic Oscillation in Blazars
We reviewed multi-wavelength blazars variability and detection of quasi-periodic oscillations on intra-day timescales. The variability timescale from a few minutes to up to less than a days is commonly known as intra-day variability.

The Blazar Sequence and Its Physical Understanding
Introduced in 1998 to attempt a first unified view of the broad-band emission properties of blazars, the blazar sequence has been extensively used in the past 25 years to guide observations as well as the physical interpretation of the overall emission ...

Discovery of Hidden Blazars [PDF]
Every radio-loud quasar may have blazar activities, according to a unified scheme where the differences in both optical and radio observations of radio-loud quasars are the result of different viewing angles. We have predicted that blazars may be detected using emission line ratio variations caused by variable illumination of gas clouds in the broad ...

The CLASS blazar survey: testing the blazar sequence [PDF]
We discuss the properties of the sources in the CLASS Blazar survey which aims at the selection of low radio power (P(5GHz)<10^25 W Hz^-1) blazars. We use VLA data from available catalogues and from our own observations to constrain the radio core-dominance of the sample which, together with the flat radio spectral index, is a signature of the ...

The Nature of Micro-Variability in Blazars
We present the results of a long-term study designed to investigate the nature of micro-variability in blazars carried out primarily at the Southeastern Association for Research in Astronomy (SARA) observatories.

Blazars are observed to emit non-thermal radiation across the entire electromagnetic spectrum from the radio to the very-high-energy γ-ray region. The broadband radiation measured from a blazar is dominated by emission from a relativistic plasma jet ...

RoboPol: do optical polarization rotations occur in all blazars?
We present a new set of optical polarization plane rotations in blazars, observed during the third year of operation of RoboPol. The entire set of rotation events discovered during three years of observations is analysed with the aim of determining ...

Asca Observations of Blazars [PDF]
During the last years it has become evident that blazar class of AGN emit a lot of energy in the gamma-ray regime. It is generally thought that the non-thermal emission from blazars, observed from radio to GeV/TeV 7-rays, is radiation of very energetic particles via both synchrotron and Compton processes.
